Wuxia vs xianxia gets blurred a lot. For me wuxia is about martial codes and jianghu loyalty, xianxia is about outgrowing the mortal world. Where would you file a sect-war story with no immortals? #wuxia #xianxia

Reading order question for long wuxia: publication order or chronological when a prequel arc exists? Prequels spoil the mystery for me, but publication order can make early books feel thin. Which do you pick? #wuxia #webnovel

Phantom Blade Zero’s combat is pure wuxia magic

GameSpot says its fluid, cinematic combat is spectacular—even as the story leaves you lost and regular enemies feel too…

What Im saying is when do I get the gaming equivalent of this little guy whose movie made barrels of money over a generic looking AI wuxia film

Danmei novels often get a cleaner English edition than xianxia ones, with fewer glossary fights. Is that because the fandom polices translations harder, or just smaller catalogs? #webnovel #wuxia

Translation style debate: do you want a web novel to keep terms like dantian and daoist, or get swapped for plain English? Glossary-heavy reads feel more authentic but can scare off new readers. #wuxia #webnovel #lnreader

Interesting graph from Chris HTMAG's latest post, on how AI use is very skewed by genre amongst the latest ~7000 next fest games. AI use is most popular with highest-revenue genres (e.g. farming sims, wuxia strategy, rts, card games)

I remember a friend comparing the lightsaber duels to ballet.

Me: "Allow me to introduce you to wuxia."

Just heard "wuxia" pronounced "wooksia" so I'm going to go take a nap.

...lol, I'm so glad I'm not into this sudden wave of Chinese/Wuxia games. If it's not the devs showing their asses, it's the fans.

I’m so glad I did deep dives into wuxia before exploring danmei because it adds so much needed context for the type of fantasy abd mysticism these books
